Cafe Nouveau at Home serves afternoon tea once a month to a maximum of 10 people. Doors open at 2pm and guests share tea and their table with lovely, friendly people who sometimes start off as strangers but usually become firm friends for the afternoon.
There is a different theme each month but the menu includes a variety of sandwiches, savoury tart, a choice of small cakes and freshly made scones. The ingredients are locally sourced where possible.
Some of the afternoon tea events are now fully booked however, there are sometimes unexpected cancellations so I also have a waiting list for each event. If you would like to be added please email me nouveau-cakes@hotmail.com.
